Mother of God Ukrainian Catholic Church

Jessica and Vladimir shared an intimate ceremony in Conyers, Georgia last July. Rather than postpone their wedding day like many other couples, they decided to marry now and celebrate later. I met them on the morning of their wedding day. July in Georgia is no joke, and the weather was very hot. But Jess and Vladi couldn’t have cared less.

Throughout their ceremony, they shared thoughtful glances and sweet smiles. Their families enjoyed a quite wedding full of emotion, and we all got to celebrate their marriage safely in the midst of a difficult summer pandemic. I am so thankful for couples like Jessica and Vladi who embrace the chaos and choose joy over sorrow, celebration over frustration.

While I won’t capture their reception until 2022, I am already eager to see them again and join the festivities as they celebrate saying “I do” with their family and friends!

 

 

Jessica and Vladi chose to share a first look on their wedding day. While their wedding was small, they wanted to spend as much time with their family and friends after their ceremony in an intimate dinner.

 

 

Jessica wore a custom wedding cape to pair with her Leanne Marshall wedding dress. I loved both looks, with and without the cape!

 

 

Vladimir looked dashing in a custom blue suit. He was the perfect “something blue” on their wedding day!
